[Jeff Cann]

Date: 11 September 2007
Time:  7:00 PM [6:30 PM socializing]

Location: Oracle Building 3, East Conference Room [Directions below]

Topic:  Nokia N800 : Debian-based PDA
Speaker:  Dennis Perkins

Convergence on small, portable computerlike devices has been underway
for some time: PDAs, Blackberry, the iPhone, the Sony VAIO UX, and the
Nokia N800 are but a few examples.

Nokia bills its N800 as an Internet tablet.  It is that and more.  You
can access your email, play games, and even use a spreadsheet.  The
N800 uses Maemo, which is based on Debian.  It is small and
lightweight and can use either Wifi or Bluetooth to connect to the
Internet.
